Cin, an #OC of #Antumbra. Specific tattoo design.

"I'm the hand of God
I'm the dark messiah
I'm the vengeful one"
A fast drawing of a female character. The main focus is given on an elaborate tattoo that spans her front and back of her body. She has a mohawk-styled haircut. The tattoo on the front position has a half-circular design starting from the shoulders and passing between her breasts. There are also small half-circular lines at the top of her nipples. At her back the top part closes the half-circle starting from the back. Below it are two circles one within another with a 5-point star in the middle and some elaborate design around and within it. Between the two circles the words ASTAROTH is written.

My most recent #comic has been published in the #freeculture zine @fodongo.bsky.social
I hope it'll spark something! A spark is all that is needed for a big change to come eventually. I would be happy if one person got pumped up after reading it.

Images are cover and first panel of my comic.
Cover of Fodongo, a free culture comics zine, issue 20. It depicts many air ballons with the one in the centre having the shape of "La rana" a "crayz" frog with a hovering tophat and two wings! At the bottom of the cover are the names of the 4 artists partaking in it: Juanele Tamal, N Toyohito, BootlegPotato, Jectoons. A grayscale comic artwork depicting a molotov coctail with the narration bubble at the top reading "This is a molotov cocktail".

Trying to get my juices running again by redesigning the logo of manga (hopefully) series #Antumbra. I will do my best to try to work again on it and finish the ~50 pages Chapter 1 in a few months time...
A graphic design of the logo of manga title ANTUMBRA. It's done with pencil and one can see the lightly shadowed characters. The right part of U and left part of M are elevated leading to two circles, one slightly larger than the other.

t's _quite_ #graphic. Deals with #suicide, so it's quite strong. None the less, it is probably one of my personal favs artwise. Done on my "travel" sketchpad with #fountainpen (sailor fuda de mannen 45) and menso #brush. Tried my best to stick to my #manga styled lines. #traditionalart all way!
A landscape page done in comic/manga style. All the images are shown in broken glass pieces. At the centre is a man's sad semi-smile. On top of him is a train passing at a station with passengers waiting at the platform, At its right is a noose, next to it is a lighting match. Below these two is a 2-barell shotgun and a revolver. Next to them, at their left is a shaving razor piece dipped in blood and top of a blood pile. At it's left is a very very tall building shown in a top down view. At the top of it is a bottles with pills pouring out next to a glass of whisky. At the top of it is a syringe half filled with liquid, standing at the top of a spoon and some white powder and pills. Next to the spoon is a lighter.

Inking of an upcoming 3-pager for @fodongo.bsky.social is finally done! I'm super excited with how it turned out. Digital processing will be revealed upon release with the zine.

(I am sorry for not adding a more thorough and explanatory description but it's beyond my current mental capacity atm)
An inked comic page with 8 panels. It depicts a rebellious attitude and a description of how a molotov cocktail is connected to "bad" stuff but also to rebellious attitude.

A full manga page in black, white and gray tones, that depicts the mental breakdown and intense mental strain of the main character, Rid. The background is black with white stars. At the bottom half of the page is Rid who grabs his head, tilted a bit forward, with both his hands, having a distorted expression of pain, suffering and bewilderment. His forearms are tied with white bandages and his wears a black right shirt. Straight white hair fall in front of his right eye and forehead. At his chest is a speech bubble saying "M...my head! Wh...who are you?! G...GET OUT!" At his left and his right, respectively are the profiles of a head of his own self looking at top right with black ooze coming out of its mouth and a demon face with black ooze substance a wide smile with sharp human-like teeth, demonic eye looking at Rid. At the top of the page is a mouth with sharp, human-like monster teeth laughing. Around it are tendril-like formations that end up forming at the left of the page the bottom half of a sword and at the right part, slightly lower, the top half of a sword both pointing at the centre of the page. Above the second sword and the demonic head are two floating demon eyes with white lines like tears flowing down. The left sword melts to form the demon face. The right sword is surrounded by abstract round shapes with two eyes looking at Rid. At the bottom right of the eyes is a formless formation with skin-like texture. At the centre of the page above Rid's head and below the teeth smile is a distorted speech bubble with the text "RID!! Finally you realize it... You and I are gradually becoming one!!!" Around the smiling teech are three speech bubbles with "light effect" around them and the text "heh..."

Panel of a manga-style page showing something hitting the ground with big speed and making a big impact like an explosion. The two characters of the story, Charlie at the back and Maggie closer to the viewer get thrown off balance. Charlie tries to cover his face with his right arm and there is a speech bubble with !!! in it. Maggie is falling on her back, her baton leaving her hand and a speech bubble of her saying "AAAAAH!!"

Hi #portfolio day! Name's Toyohito. I try to draw comics/manga in sci-fi/cyberpunk settings. Most end up being dark themed. My own personal project is Antumbra.

The focus in from the tie-knob up to the top of his head.

Below that on the left is a panel zooming in a hand grabbing menacingly a cell door bar. Only the fingers and the bar are shown. At the right of it is a panel with a very big figure of a man moving outside of a cell, saying something in 2 text bubbles. He is very angry and wears typical prison pants and a sleeveless flannel on top. at the top of his head he has a metal cybernetic implant with some tubes connecting it to his brain.

One is being thrown towards the viewers' position, the other is closer to the background.

Comic panel drawing with blue and black pencil. Work in progress. It's in dutch (diagonal) angle. Depicts a bulky, muscular, a bit fat man, throwing with his right hand a girl towards the front. Tha man's posture is like a baseball pitcher, but less technical and more aggressive. The girls is shown foreshortened, her head tilted towards the back, body parallel to the ground. She has bob haircut and wears a wornout robe. The man wears prison pants and a white sleaveless top underwear. There are lines depicting the excessing power of the throw. Straight lines from the direction of the hand towards the direction of the girl and come circular ones around the centre where the hand of the guy is. All of this happens inside a room. No details of it are drawn.

Back in action after 2 months without finding the energy or time to grab a pencil. Pretty happy with this illustration. It's graphic in the H.R.Giger like sense. Done with Sailor Fude de Mannen and Sailor black ink / DeAtramentis Document Black.

#Introduction

Traditional self-taught comic/manga maker.
I'll be posting progress on my manga #Antumbra, and other comic projects.
All my works end up being dark, disturbing, a bit creepy, in a sci-fi setting and are freeculture (CC-BY-SA).
In it for the joy of inking!

Links to works on comments
Cover image of the first chapter of the manga Antumbra. It depicts the main character in a semi-fighting semi-defensive stance having his right hand extended back holding a sword from which tendrils come out and form other blades. He has a shoulder armour with a demon face engraving on his left arm. He has white dreadlocks on the back and white straight hair covering the right half of his face. At the background is a rectangle half in shadows and half in white with some cross-hatching gradient between them. Top of the image has the Antumbra manga logo, and bottom left writes: ANTUMBRA story and art by N Toyohito. First of three comic pages with 5 panels. Inked and digitally processed with screentones. Top big panel that depicts a prison spaceship in the darkness of space. Mid left panel shows two geared up people walking in a big room with 2 levels, both having prison cells. The floor has iron grids and in the background towards the middle of the room is a pillar like structure that is an elevator. In the two panels next to it, top shows a bald man behind prison bars with a big smile looking a bit down and saying something, and the bottom one shows a hand behind bars trying to grab a bottom that wears tight pants. At the bottom panel are two people with white hats, and black heavy guard attire speaking to each other. The person in front, close to the viewer is looking at the one on the back, who is a girl with a very uncomfortable and embarrassed (of an awkward moment) look.
